Wow !! This was a energetic and spectacular performance from Chicago of one of thier greatest hits - better than the original recording -. Thanks for sharing.

[spellbound]

Made me smile.

Man, that gave me goosebumps. The soundtrack to every band I was in during high school and college.

Damn! That Tanglewood clip is GREAT! Excellent audio, too! I love the sound from that Hohner electric piano! I always thought Lamm used a Fender Rhodes. The horn arrangements are fantastic, too! Who did them? Pankow?

So much instrumentation to pay attention to that it's easy to overlook Danny Seraphine on drums. He's tearing it up on that small kit, just like another jazzy player of the era with a small kit, Ian Paice of Deep Purple. These guys did so much with so little hardware.

That's a good little dance combo, as my grandma would say.

Paice has always been one of my favorite drummers as well. And his cymbals always sounded perfect. Don't know if it was the selection or the recording techniques, but man, did they sound great.

I was 9-10 when the Edgar Winter song "Frankenstein" was a big hit circa 1973 (even on AM radio!) I'll never forget how much a buddy of mine and I just loved it, but I'll never forget his older brother -- who I think was in high school -- thought it was terribly pedestrian compared to REAL music: Chicago. Clearly even back then I was much more interested in prog rock instrumental music versus what I came to think of as very American pop-with-horns music. Looking back on it now I have a much greater appreciation for Chicago (especially Kath and the horn players), but growing up with all the soft hits of the 70s did their reputation no good with me.

I was the same way- in the 70s I always thought they were, you know, OK... I liked the radio hits fine but never thought they were all that. Someone made me listen to the albums and my mind was blown.

Terry!!

[Wisdomview]

Yes!!! Cool to see Terry with an SG.

[Rand Kelly]

Yes!!! Cool to see Terry with an SG.

A Triple p/u SG Custom. I think the guy in Fallon's band,The Roots plays one just like it. Sorry, I don't know his name right now,but that guitar is beautiful.

Terry is using one pedal, a wah-wah. Jimi's fave player was Terry and how many pedals did Jimi use on stage?
